Re:Thanks for the tip, Sherlock
Hey, slashdot Nerd!!
Let's see if I can make a response appropriate to your level of debate...

Amazing?But what's amazing, is that Ron Gilbert of Grumpy Gamer, the creator of the majority of these games, actually supports it. He applauds their efforts, and seems to have no problems with the project. It's really refreshing to see a good attitude about these things.
Why is this amazing? Cool, 'yes', but not 'amazing'. Not everyone is a greedy, scum-sucking IP parasite.
Lots of authors of old games are totally fine with fans reviving their creations. Some of the original members of Binary Systems have worked as consultants for the fan-made Starflight III, for example (though the game may as well be called "Starflight Forever"). I've even received a personal email from one of the author's of the card game Rampage complimenting me on tribute to the game.
It seems to me that most game designers for old games are completely okay with this kind of thing. What would be amazing if you found some EA suit who was as supportive of a fan made version of a two year old game.

eDonkeyBut I think a workaround for this would be to have md5 signatures computed for each of these parts and verify them before they are downloaded. I'm not sure if this isn't being done by others already.
A file sharing program called eDonkey does this.
It's fantastic for getting MST3K avis!

What about the Subjective Method?Pointy Haired Boss: "So, how productive do you feel you've been today?"
You: "Well, sir, I feel I've been very productive today."
